tools ⇒ page 106 .
Renew self-locking nuts and bolts.
♦
Renew bolts which must be tightened further to a torque angle.
♦
All cable ties which were opened or cut during removal must

be renewed at the same points.

splines; remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coat of
clutch plate spline grease -G 000 100- to splines. Then move
clutch plate to and fro on input shaft until hub moves freely on
shaft. Remove excessive grease.
– If the gearbox is to be renewed, the gearbox selector lever and
relay lever must be transferred to the new gearbox.
– All threaded holes into which self-locking bolts are to be
screwed must be cleaned of residual locking fluid carefully with
a thread tap.
– Check whether dowel sleeves for aligning engine and gearbox
are fitted in cylinder block and install if necessary.
If dowel sleeves are not fitted, difficulties shifting gears, clutch
problems and possible noises from the gearbox (rattling of gears
which are not engaged) could occur.
